Avocado+Corn Guac
I made this to go with Red Roasted Chicken Tacos, the fresh corn adds the perfect bite to the soft tacos. Or you can just eat it straight out of the bowl while you are watching The Amazing Race…I certainly won’t judge you.
ingredients:
2 avocados, quartered, seeded and peeled
2 ears of fresh roasted corn (recipe, here)
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup onion, chopped small
2 cloves garlic, chopped
juice of one lime
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt and pepper to taste
Fresh roasted corn off the cob is the best – sweet and creamy, it not only tastes great on it’s own but adds so much to recipes. Take the cob and simply cut down the sides, not going too deep, just far enough to get all that corn-y goodness.
Add the corn to the avocados, tomatoes, onions, garlic and lime juice. Mash it together to your liking. Some people like it chunky, others totally mashed. I’m sure there’s a psych eval in there somewhere about what you like better.
Add the cayenne, salt and pepper. You need to taste it once you add the seasonings to get it just how you like it. Stir it up a bit more and you’re ready to roll!
I’m not easily impressed. . . but that’s iprmeissng me!
